## Where to use it

It shines on dark, fairly empty layouts where a bit of light draws the eye: a new collection from a ceramics brand, a featured case study in a studio portfolio, the launch of a limited drop. This card with a cursor glow effect uses HTML and CSS, plus a few lines of JavaScript to track the mouse.

One or two of these per page is plenty; a whole grid of glowing cards turns into a light show. Choose a first color that fits your brand, since the glow takes its tint. On touch screens there is no hover, so the glow rests in its corner.

### HTML

```html

````text
I want to add the “Aura card with arrow” block (Cards) from AIMRAN Library to my project.

## What it is
A soft glow follows the mouse inside the card, and the arrow on the button nudges forward on hover.

## Chosen settings
- Main color: #0071e3
- Secondary color: #8ec5ff
- Size: 16px (from 12 to 24px)
- Speed: 1x (from 0.5 to 2x)
- Text: "Materia"

## What I need
1. Add it to my project with the same look and animation as the reference code: same sizes, colours, radii, shadows, timings and easing.
2. It is built with plain HTML and CSS (the reference wraps it in a React component with its CSS). If my project uses something else (Vue, Svelte, Astro, plain HTML…), translate it without losing any behaviour. If I use Tailwind, turn the styles into classes; if not, keep the CSS in its own file.
3. Expose the settings above as props (or CSS variables) with those values as defaults.
4. Make it work well on phones: nothing that depends only on hover, touch targets of at least 44 px and no overflow on 320 px screens.
5. Make it look right in light and dark mode.
6. Keep it accessible: semantic HTML, roles and aria-* where needed, visible focus and keyboard support.
7. Respect prefers-reduced-motion: with reduced motion, no big animations but the same end result.
